Removals, pruning, stump grinding and storm cleanup for rural lots and in-town yards across West Lincoln.
Tree Service for Smithville Properties
Smithville is West Lincoln's main town, surrounded by farmland, woodlots and long rural driveways. Tree work here tends to be bigger than in the city: old fencerow trees that have grown huge, windbreaks past their prime, dead ash at the edge of the field and storm damage across a lane. Tree Service Niagara handles all of it, from pruning the maples in an in-town yard to taking down and clearing a row of dead trees on a country property. Call (289) 672-1630 for a free estimate.
We walk the property with you, sort out which trees need work and which are fine, and put it all on one written quote.
Trees in Smithville
Twenty Mile Creek winds through Smithville, and the land around it is a patchwork of fields, hedgerows and woodlots. Many rural properties have big old maples, oaks and walnuts along the road or the fence line, planted or left standing generations ago, alongside windbreak rows of spruce and pine. In town, newer subdivisions have younger trees that benefit from structural pruning while they're small. And like everywhere in Niagara, ash was common in the woodlots and fencerows, and emerald ash borer has killed most of it. Dead ash along a lane or a fence should come down before it falls across it. Tree removal.
The Local Rule
West Lincoln has delegated small-woodland protection to the Region, so trees that are part of a woodland, even a small one, may need a permit to cut on rural land. A few trees in a yard or along a fence aren't a woodland, and dead or hazardous trees are exempt from the by-law. We check before we start.

Certified Arborist →Rural Lots and Big Trees
Big properties mean big jobs, and that changes how we work. Where there's room, a tree can be felled whole in a planned direction, which is quicker and cheaper than taking it down in pieces. Wood can be cut to firewood length and left in a pile for you, saving the cost of hauling. Several trees, stumps and a storm cleanup can all go on one visit and one quote. And when a tree is too valuable to lose, like a big roadside oak or maple, we'll prune it rather than remove it.
Smithville Tree Questions
Can you cut up the wood for firewood?
Yes. We can cut it to stove length and stack or pile it where you want, which usually costs less than hauling it away. Leave ash wood on your own property, though; moving firewood spreads pests.
Do I need a permit to clear trees on my rural property?
If the trees form a woodland, possibly. West Lincoln's smaller woodlands are covered by the Regional by-law, and clearing for farming has its own rules. Single trees and fencerows usually aren't affected. Call us and we'll check.
